The very day she came back into her home country, she heard the most absurd news. "Your sister is getting married with Mr. Stephenson". "What did you say?" She couldn't believe it. At the engagement party, she was shocked to see her sister getting engaged to her fiancé. "Daniel, remember this, I dumped you! Did you hear that? I dumped you, not the other way round." ..... Who could have guessed that after being betrayed by her fiancé and sister and being labelled as a home wrecker, someone would still want to marry her? "Don't you want to get revenge on your fiancé for what he did?" Nathan Clemon asked Hilda. "What has that got to do with you?" She snapped back. "It has got everything to do with me. I am the only person who could help you achieve that whiles giving you the happiness that any woman would wish in this world."

Plano lang ni Helga Louisse Palma na ipamukha sa ex niya na okay na siya — kaya nag-hire siya ng escort para plus one sa party. Simple, di ba? Pero hindi niya inasahan na ang “escort o gigolo” ay si Damian Caius Avelino, isang bilyonaryong CEO na hindi lang gwapo, kundi sanay din sa drama at sinabayan pa ang plano niya. Bigla rin silang naging trending online bilang new couple, at kahit ang pamilya ni Damian kumbinsido na sila nga. Wala na si Helga choice kundi sumabay sa palabas at maging fiancée ni Damian. Ang problema? Habang tumatagal ang palabas, hindi na acting ang kilig na nararamdaman ni Helga. Pero handa ba siyang magtiwala ulit, o isa na namang heartbreak ang naghihintay sa kanya?

Sa kabila ng kanyang buong tiwala at wagas na pagmamahal sa asawa, hindi kailanman inakala ni Isabella na sa bawat ngiti at yakap nito ay nakatago ang isang kasinungalingang wawasak sa buo niyang mundo. Hanggang isang gabi, tuluyang nabunyag ang mapait na katotohanan: ibinenta siya ng sariling asawa. Hindi bilang katuwang, hindi bilang mahal sa buhay—kundi bilang isang kabayaran sa kasunduan na iniligtas ang naluluging negosyo nito. Ang kapalit? Isang multi-milyong dolyar na kontrata. Isang kasunduang isinakripisyo ang kanyang dignidad. Mas lalong bumigat ang lahat nang malaman niyang ibinenta siya kay Sebastian Montgomery—isang kilalang business tycoon na kinatatakutan ng marami. Malamig, walang kompromiso, at may kapangyarihang durugin o buuin ang sinuman sa isang iglap. Ngayon, ang tanong: Paano mo lalabanan ang isang lalaking may legal na pagmamay-ari sa’yo… ngunit unti-unting inaangkin pati puso mo?

Isang biglaang kasal na nagsimula sa simpleng pagkikita ngunit nauwi sa pag-ibig na masyadong matamis para maging totoo. Nagpakasal si Yu Yan sa isang lalaking dalawang beses pa lamang niyang nakilala. Walang engrandeng pangako, walang drama—tanging tahimik na pagsasama, init ng hapunan, at lambing sa pagitan ng mag-asawa. Sa bawat ngiti ng kanyang asawa, sa bawat yakap sa dulo ng araw, unti-unting nahulog ang loob ni Avabelle. Akala niya, sapat na ang simpleng pagmamahal. Hanggang sa isang araw, isang nakakagulat na katotohanan ang gumising sa kanya—ang tagapagmana ng pinakamayamang korporasyon ay kamukhang-kamukha ng lalaking minahal niya, pinakasalan niya, at tinawag na kanya. Kung ang lalaking mahal niya ay may tinatagong pagkatao… Magbabago rin ba ang pag-ibig na kanilang binuo?

When a hurricane comes, my husband, the leader of a rescue team, takes away everything we've stored at home so he can save his true love. I plead, "Leave some for me. I'm pregnant." He shakes me off. "How can you be so evil? The windows at Lottie's home have already been blown away. Don't tell me you're going to sit by and watch her die! She's not like you—you're not afraid of everything. The hurricane will be over soon, so you won't need any of this stuff." After that, he leaves without another look back. What he doesn't know is that there's also a crack in our home's windows.

The day my mom was beaten up for being a mistress, I slammed the family crest into my dad’s face. I had been studying abroad, and on my return flight, I came across a video. The title read, [Richest Family’s Heirs Defend Their Mom and Beat Up Mistress.] In the video, my mother was wearing coarse linen clothes while my brothers surrounded her. They were punching and kicking her. They even tore her clothes and cussed her out as a shameless mistress. Her eyes were teary as she desperately tried to explain. However, she was only met with mocking laughter. A stranger in haute couture stood shielded behind them, and she sweetly said, “Alright, I know you’re doing this for me, but we don’t need to waste our time on ungrateful people.” The surrounding guests showered her with birthday wishes and praised her for her graciousness. “This is the grace befitting Mrs. Roth! Do some people really not own a mirror at home?” “A mistress dares to call herself Mrs. Roth? Doesn’t she know the entire Roth family was built on her assets? Which part of her looks like a lady?” Hearing them call her “Mrs. Roth,” I clenched my phone, and the screen reflected my icy expression. I had only been away from home for three years. How did I not know that I had acquired such a despicable “mother”?

"The 10th circle of hell was actually the earth, and being alive is the real tormention." Naenia Lovercraft is a ghostwriter who's in a dire need of money, but because she's an epitome of a mad woman, every potential client tries to run for their lives away from her. Well except for this skull-mask wearing guy who introduced himself as Lord Serenade. He was indeed interested in making her write his gory fantasies and buy her works. However, it comes with certain conditions and it should include Neania herself. To live with him. In an old mansion. In the middle of nowhere. Thus, with mysteries to unveil and countless crimes relating to violence, one must connect the dots for everything before the cops arrest the wrong culprit. But in a world full of temptations and sins, who could really stay true to righteousness and prove that there's really a wrong culprit?

On my wedding day, my groom's sister, Nadia Lawson, wears an elaborate ball gown and comes on stage to snatch the emcee's microphone. Before all the guests, she arrogantly says to me, "Can't you see the princess is here? Why didn't you curtsy and greet me? You deserve to be punished! Get on your knees and prostrate yourself before me as an apology!" My expression sours at her insolence. I turn around only to see the indulgent expressions on her parents' faces. The groom, Bowen Lawson, says dotingly, "We spoiled Nad silly since she was a child. You are her sister-in-law now. Don't make things hard for her." I am so mad that I can't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all. The clown thinks she's a princess, asking me to kneel before her? Ridiculous.

In our five years of marriage, my husband, Derrick Wickham, bails on me 99 times for his childhood sweetheart, Jessica Harson. This time, after he stands me up, I find two plane tickets to Frantines in his office. "I was planning to surprise you for our anniversary. Since you've already seen them, we'll just meet at the airport," he says icily. I eagerly pack and get myself ready, arriving early at the airport. I wait from the wee hours of dawn till the late hours of night, but Derrick fails to show up. Then, I see a post on Jessica's social media. "It's my birthday today. Though he doesn't have the time to go on a trip with me to Frantines, I forgive him because he brought me to the amusement park instead!" In the past, I'd have called him, crying and demanding answers. But this time, I'm truly done.
